NEWS FROM THE HAWAII STATE NUMISMATIC ASSOCIATION AND THE HONOLULU COIN CLUB

VOL. 15 NO. 43

Viictosn

By C. Matsuda

The Honolulu Coin Club is in its fortieth year this
year. The club was founded on May 6, 1955 by
a then United States Marine Corp-s captain named
Charles J. Laskowski. Mr. Henry Kenway Luke
is credited with naming ¢he Honolulu Coin Club.
According to club records , the Nu-Hou-Dala-
Paa was not the Honolulu Coin Club’s first
newsletter. The club’s first newsletter was called,

"The Kion Klubber" that dated in February

1956.

In the coin world, 1955 was a great year for coin
collecting. It was a great year for errored coins.
For starters there was the Lincoln 1955 Double
Die, which was made from improperly prepared

dies that showed full doubled outlines on the date ©

and legend. I remember a coin dealer telling me
back in the 60’s that he was offered eleven 1955
double dies for three dollars and fifty cents a
piece. He didn’t think it was worth that much, so
he passes it. Today, the double dies are worth
three thousand five hundred in MS65 according to
the red book. Another error coin was the 1955
Franklin half dollar, with a slight error on the
upper lip of Franklin’s portrait. It was known as
the Bugs Bunny half, referring to the cartoon
character’s buck teeth.

Other coins that are popular are the Roosevelt
dime minted in Philadelphia which is the lowest
mintage in the Roosevelt set with 12.8 million.
The 1955 Roosevelt, P, D, S, were so popular
that many were kept from circulation. The 1955
Washington quarter, Denver mint, was also a low

Fifty. Ye

mintage coin with only 3.1 million coins minted.
This coin was the lowest mintage coin since the

1940 Denver mintage of 2.7 million. In those
days coins could still be collected as a running set
by going to the bank and buying rolls of coins.
The news around the world was uneasy with the
Cold War and Communism. The Far East was
also a sorely troubled area, particularly in
Indochina, following the French defeat at Dien
Bien Phu in May, 1954. A successful anti-polio
vaccine was announced by Dr. Jonas E. Salk.
Davy Crockett and rock’n’roll highlighted the
year. "Coon" skin caps and Davy Crockett’s
technicolor movie produced in Hollywood by Walt
Disney became a national fad. Rock and roll was
in full swing with "Rock Around The Clock" by
Bill Halley and the Comets. Remember? More
than a billion comic books were sold according to
a report issued by the University of California, at
an estimated cost of one hundred million dollars.
At ten cents a copy that was four times the book
budget for all U.S. public libraries combined.
New York State passed a law banning the sale of
lurid crime and horror comics in 1955 for persons
under 18 years of age. Violators were punished
with a year in prison and/or a fine of five hundred
dollars. |

In sports it was a great year for the Brooklyn
Dodgers, who won their first baseball
championship against the mighty New York
Yankees. Rocky Marciano was still the World’s
Heavyweight Champion in_ boxing. The
Cleveland Browns defeated the Los Angeles Rams
38 to 14 for the NFL Championship. In the NBA
the Syracuse Nationals beat the Fort Wayne
Pistons for the title. Syracuse? Fort Wayne? In
the NBA? So, that was the year 1955. By the
way, who was the President of the United States
in 1955? Well, I'll let you look it up. Happy
40th Anniversary.

HSNA COIN CONVENTION

BY HELEN L. CARMODY

Although attendance was slightly down from 1993, |
the Hawaii State Numismatic Association's 31st |

anniversary convention November 10-13 at the
Queen Kapiolani Hotel on Oahu was deemed. a
success, with desired material acquired by collectors
and plenty of mainland dealers.

The opening day of the state's numismatic event of
the year saw spirited dealer-to-dealer business on the
63 table (80 dealer) bourse. Collectors who came
early were enthusiastic about the fresh material
displayed at the show and the willingness of dealers
to share their knowledge.

"What really pleased me about this show," remarked

Don King of Windward Coins, Kailua, "was that the |

ANACS grading people were here. We had
numerous educational seminars for those who wanted
to learn, and the turnout for those events were very,
very, good. The attendance was fair, and business
was brisk. A lot of proof sets and medium range
items were selling well."

"I believe collectors were actually making quite a few
purchases," said Michael O'Higgins of Maryland Coin
Exchange, Silver Spring, Md. "Key-date coins were

especially popular. I'd like to see more dealers from.

the mainland setting up at the show. Once a dealer
comes over here, he will be hooked for future shows
because of the accomodating treatment by the club
officers, the hospitality of the people, and the
spectacular environment."

Honolulu dealer Francis Loo remarked, "The
presence of ANACS served as an educational source
for myself personally and for my customers, too.
Having a professional appraisal of coins helped

collectors make more educated purchases. A lot of

good friends were buying and selling. Collector
interest continues, which is good for the hobby to
share the joys of collecting, as the hobby is really for
the collector."

Ray Gelewski of Silver Dollar Associates,
Spotsylvania, Va., said, "I am just elated with the
attendance and the number of people who showed
interest in all the series, especially Morgan dollars
and commemoratives. I was revisited by many of the
friends, acquaintances and clients we have made
during the past six years of doing the show."

"What overshadows everything is just being able to
meet with these people, talk with them again, and do
business. We definitely appreciate the hospitality
shown to us by the bourse chairman, the outstanding
security arrangements and the overall superior
facilities provided to the dealets."

- Although new faces didn't appear to be in attendance,

the "hard-core" collectors were present, said dealer
James A. Hill from Treasure Trove in San Diego,
California.

"Affordable XF-AU coins sold well," said Hill. "I did

very well with ancient coins. Hawaiiana material, as

usual, was the best-selling item at the show. There
was a lot of interest in large size and national
currency. Several mainland dealers were here
primarily to buy that material and were able to buy it
from local dealers."

Dealer George I. Eggimann of Diamond Springs,
California, stated, "There was excellent dealer-to-
dealer business this year, but retail activity was a bit
slow. As dealers, we receive excellent treatment
from the members of HSNA, especially Greg Hunt
and Marion Kendrick. I have been coming here since
1973 and intend to return next year and the year
after."

Don H. Ketterling, of Kirkland, Wash., commented,
"It was very slow the first day and became very
active Friday afternoon and Saturday. It seems there
are less and less collectors each year and more
browsers. I think the setup is fine. The security is
always good and the drawings and seminars are a
boost to attendance and stimulate interest. The
economy has just been sputtering here, as it has been
everywhere, and business at the show reflected that.
People are on budgets and seem to have less money
to spend each time."

Another Kirkland dealer, James P. Hart, said, "There
weren't as many collectors here as there were last
year. However, it was a good show. There was a lot

- of fresh material to be purchased. As always, it was a

pleasure to visit with all the people from the Islands,
and the show was very well run. The security is the
best in the nation. Hawaiiana, currency and some
coins seemed to be of most interest to collectors
attending the show."

Everything from 50 cent coins to four figure items
were sold by Honolulu dealer, James A. Simek of
Hawaiian Islands Stamp & Coin.

"The areas of strength seemed to be rare Hawaiiana,
as uaual, currency (both foreign and U.S.), silver
dollars, and Hawaiian-related material, such as
autographs, documents, and postcards," Simek said.
"We were very pleased with the collector turnout and
have good feelings about the market for the near
future."

Al Kreuzer of Alan Kreuzer Rare Coins, Castro
Valley, California, said, "I believe the economy in
Hawaii follows a year or a year and a half behind
California, and definitely the conditions here are
worse than they were six months ago. People who
have come to this show for the last 15 years weren't
present, or, if they did come, they didn't spend what
they normally have in the past. Overall, however, I
really like the people of Hawaii and their attitude.
The majority of my business was wholesale. It is an
especially well run show and I plan to return next
year."

Hilo, Hawaii dealer, Vern Lowe of Lowe's Rare
Coins, said, "It was a good show. No one seri€s$ was
any more popular than another. There were more
people than normal who came to acquaint themselves
with the hobby than to make actual purchases. I
think the educational forum was a very good addition
to the show and I hope to see it continue in future
years."

Dealer Irving Kam of Honolulu said, "I think for an
HSNA show, it was average. The first day was busy.
Wholesale activity was very good. No one series
seemed toebe most popular. There was a general
interest in all series of coins and Hawaiian
collectibles. Because Friday was a holiday (Veteran's
Day), we perhaps anticipated a better public turnout
than we had." .
Despite a poor economy, the influx of mainlan
dealers was helpful, said Haleiwa dealer Bill
Comerford. "They have been strong buyers of
commems, and I sold a lot of MS-64 commems to
local collectors," Comerford said. "Generally, I have
been very much pleased with the activity. It is the
best HSNA show I have ever had. In the first day I
did as much business as I anticipated for the entire
show."

Retail activity was "marginal at best", said California
dealer, Jack H. Beymer of Santa Rosa.

"It wasn't quite up to par," Beymer said. "Not as
many people were interested in coins at this show as
have been in the past. We had a good show; thank
goodness for visiting dealers, who were actively

~ seeking coins."

Craig Watanabe, of Captain Cook Coins in Honolulu,
said he felt activity was good for him because of two
recently purchased collections that he sold at the

show. |
"It seemed the low-end, Mint state type coins were

selling very well in addition to premium quality
certified coins in the $500 and below range,"
Watanabe said. "However, there seemed to be more
activity among the dealers than with the public, as has
been the most recent trend." |

Dealer Steven Musil, of Kearney, Nebraska,
said,"This show has been about average for the
shows I have attended this fall. This show is very
well run. The people who attend HSNA are active
collectors who are seeking tougher dates and grades.
I would say that dealer-to-dealer business was about
average." |

! James Kinoshita of | Downtown Coin Gallery in

Honolulu stated, "Attendance seemed the same, but
due to the economy, people weren't able to spend the
amounts they have in the past. The show had good
dealer-to-dealer activity. If it weren't for the dealers,
sales would have been down. Collector coins--basic

_bread and butter coins moved the best. There wasn't

much interest in slabbed coins or high priced

| material."

A mainstay at the show is 30 year veteran Catherine
Bullowa of Coinhunter, Philadelphia, Pa., who said,
"My business was slow,although I had a number of
my usual customers. People were doing the same
thing here as in Philadelphia in that they wanted to
sell. I was pleased to see some juniors who- were
really serious about wanting to collect. One boy, in
particular, purchased a two-cent piece, three-cent
nickel piece, and two types of large cents. He went
away very happy, and so was I to start a young
collector in our hobby."

Les Crawley of Tulsa, Okla., said, "We came over to
renew old acquaintances as well as to sell as much
Hawaiiana as we could in order to spend our
children's inheritance! We have visited with eight or
ten of my old friends from the Big Island Coin Club,
some of whom I hadn't seen for 10 or 12 years."

. \ ROOSEVELT DIMES
<”') PART I-----SILVER
BY IRVING KAM

A recently "rediscovered" certificate, dated
September of 1981, and proclaiming this writer as
member #61 in the "Full Serif Roosevelt Dime Club",
renewed fond interest in this often over looked series.
Akin to the full split bands on the Mercury dime or
the full steps of the Jefferson nickel, attention is
centered on well struck pieces and their minting
characteristics. A quick scan of a recent Coin World
"Trends" reveal that prices for B.U. Roosevelt dimes
are really bargain basement cheap. In fact,
surprisingly so when you consider that the value
entails uncirculated silver coins with a significantly
historical background. They currently offer an
affordable entry level possibility and merit a closer
look.

With the sudden passing of America's thirty-second
president in 1945, a proposal was formulated to
honor Franklin Delano Roosevelt by placing his
likeness on a current circulating coin. The task of
preparing a design was assigned to the mint’s chief
sculptor/engraver, John R. Sinnock, who soon after
would repeat the process again with the Franklin half
dollar.
with this Roosevelt representation, many researchers
agree that sculptor Dr. Selma Burke's bas-relief of
said president served as the principal inspiration.
Uniting F.D.R. with the ten cents denomination
proved an ideal pairing as his name would eventually
become synonymous with the March of Dimes. A
victim himself of poliomyelitis, which crippled him in
1921, helped lead the nation in its annual: fund
raising campaigns that culminated each year on his
birthday. Further confirmation that the new
Roosevelt dime was tied to the March of Dimes
became apparent when Leland Howard, then acting
Director of the Mint stated: "It is desired that the
new dimes be produced at the beginning of the
calendar year in sufficient quantity to use them in the
infantile paralysis drive." Keeping within the
confines of a deadline, the first new postwar coinage
design was released into commerce on January 30,
1946, the sixty-fourth anniversary of Roosevelt's
birth. As final proof of this winning combination, the
Salk vaccine was proclaimed safe and effective
against the dreaded disease in 1955, the tenth
anniversary of Franklin D. Roosevelt's death.

the reverse areas, 1s

Interestingly, although Sinnock is credited -

The accumulation of every date and mint mark from
the years 1946 through 1964, or what the more

"seasoned" collectors refer to as a "running" set,

should present just the right amount of provocation
to keep it interesting. Surviving mintages favor the
hobbyist so it makes sense to pursue only better than
average pieces with original mint surfaces and a nice
eye appeal. There are no really serious obstacles to
this portion of the series and a good quality loupe
should take care of all the minor ones. Improper
storage methods in one form or another seems to be
an age old problem. So is mishandling. As a result,
there is an abundance of shiny looking "sliders" and
sulfur burnt "Uncs" with everything else in between.
Cleaned, over dipped, and hairlined dimes are also
found in quantity and especially so on the better
dated material for obvious reasons. Though the
coin's rather flat plain design lends itself easily to
abrasions, bag marks are not overly excessive due in
part to its smaller size and lighter weight. As is
typical of the San Francisco facility's output of the
period, much of their coinage is plagued with soft
mushy devices. Weakly struck examples, notably on
a distinguishing trait of this
mint's product and should be viewed as more of a
challenge than a problem.

Just like any other series, the Roosevelt dimes has its
share of key and semi-key dates that equate to,
unfortunately, more money. However, over half of
the forty eight pieces needed for this fun can be
acquired for a few dollars each at most. The 1949-S
is the high end item followed by the 1950-S, 1949-P,
and the 1951-S respectively. The key date was listed
at fifty dollars in the MS-65 column but it can be
possibly encountered from time to time for a lot less.
The same scenario is true of the most common dates
that are offered occasionally for a little more than its
intrinsic or silver value.

A natural extension to this grouping of dimes is with
the addition of a proof version to the business strikes.
They were produced primarily for the collector and
struck at least twice on specially prepared dies and
planchets. Available each year since 1950, the proof
sets than contained the Roosevelt dimes are often
broken up and sold individually to collectors
according to their respecive specialties. Like their
circulation counterparts, inadequate storage practices
and mishandling have contributed to impairments in
every degree. Appropriate caution is advised as with

any other series and care should be exercised to
prevent further deterioration. The first year of issue

is considered the key date and carries a twenty six |

dollar current evaluation in PF-65. This sure has got
to be the cheapest it has been in a long time. A more
ambitious approach can be undertaken by collecting

proof dimes with frosted devices on both sides of the |

coin. These early die strikes can be stunningly
beautiful and are a whole category unto itself. Prices
will be commensurated with the degree of depth as
well as difficulty and should keep one busy for quite
awhile.

Another avenue of interest is the multitude of die
varieties that include repunched dates and mint
marks, doubled dies, over mint marks, and the like.
The first major variety coincided with the inaugural
year of the dime when two distinct obverse hubs
were employed. Type I is distinguished by a small
misshapened J.S. designer's initials and the Y in
Liberty is farther away from the forelock of
Roosevelt's hair. On the Type II, the J.S. is larger
with a more pronounced shape and the Y is closer to
the forelock. The last year of silver content had a
similar occurrence in the date area when again, two
different working hubs were used. The first variety,
the scarcer of the two, involves a 9 with a pointed tail
and a plain upper serif in the number 1. On the
second variety, the 9 has what is referred to as a
blunt end and there is no serif to the numeral |.
Between these years, a myriad of fascinating varieties
await the curious and offer a parallel with unlimited
numismatic value.

Other related areas that offer diversity may be
through the error field with some unusual but not
less spectacular examples of coinage. Multiple
strikes,off-centers, capped die strikes, wrong stock
planchets, die cracks, broadstrikes, and so on. Or a
toned set of dimes with kaleidoscopic coloration,
which vary from coin to coin, can be assembled with
some impressive results.

Many additional possibilities can be found throughout
the Roosevelt series and will prove to be an
absolutely solid choice especially when the element of
enjoyment is factored in. Take a leisurely approach
while handpicking each addition to the collection and
~ by all means, have fun.

Aloha! Pau!

Ihe Maui arrotbull

By C. Matsuda

‘High above the northwest slopes of Haleakala,

Maui, lives a small population of honeycreepers.

These birds seems unusually different with a

distinctive parrot-like hooked bill. Found only on
Maui they are called the Maui Parrotbill (pseudo
nestor xanthophyrys). These honeycreepers are
olive green in color above the wings have a
yellow breast and abdomen. There is also a
yellow line above theirs with black lores. The
tails are very short and brown in color. The
Maui Parrotbill grows to about five. and a half
inches in size and forages on the stems and
branches of their favorite Koa tree for larvae,
pupae, and young beetles. Their curved upper
and lower mandibles are efficient tools for
foraging in the Maui rainforest. They maybe seen
with other native Hawaiian creepers.

The Maui Parrotbill is the obverse of the number
sixteen wood in the Hawaiian Endangered
Wildlife Series. The reverse of the token is the
Heliconia, a relative of the banana, Musaceae
family of plants. Many types of Heliconia abound
in the Hawaiian rainforests. The one seen on the
token is called the Lobster Claw, which resembles
the claw of the lobster, as it grows on the stem
with its large long leaves. The colors of the
claws are red with a dark green trim along the
edges.

The Maui Parrotbill token, number sixteen in the
Endangered Wildlife Series is available for
purchase. Send a stamped self-addressed
envelope and fifty cents for each token requested. —

+ CONVENTION

Continued from page 3

The show is more expanded than the last time we
were here. There are more dealers from the
mainland, and the exhibits are two or three times
more informative than they were. We are so happy
we came. Having ANACS represented is indicative
of all the hard work and effort put into the way the
show is run. All those connected with the convention
deserve a lot of thanks."

Dick Armstrong of Dick Armstrong Rare Coins,
Sacramento, Calif, stated: "The show was very
positive. It was helped by the fact that there were
quite a few mainland dealers working the floor.
There was a buzz of activity. It was positive and
profitable." |

Another California dealer, Doug Bird of Douglas F.
Bird, Inc., Hermosa Beach, commented, "We had a
very good time and collectors showed up again, and
they were very receptive to fresh material from the
mainland. I certainly plan to be here next year."

Popular with the attendees was the. first time

appearance of ANACS grading service and the ©

educational forum jointly sponsored by the Big Island
Coin Club and HSNA.

Fourteen BICC members manned the forum, which
consisted of showing video-tapes borrowed from the
American Numismatic Association as well as three
speakers on Nov. 12: Stan Santiago, "Phone Cards--
Today's Newest Collectible," Vern Lowe: "Hawaiian
Trial and Pattern Pieces"; and “Questions and
Answers on Artificial Toning" by Bob Campbell.

Exhibits were again a hig| hllight of the convention.

James A. Simek's display, "Type Set of Small Size
U.S. Currency from 1928-1969." consisted of six
cases. |
Three junior members, the Izuo sisters, entered their
exhibits along with the adult members and received
much praise for their efforts.

Exhibits at the convention are soley for educational
purposes and are not competitive. Exhibitors are
awarded a unique pewter medal.

This year's show medal (No. 7 of the HSNA's
Hawaiian Island series) honors the return of
Kahoolawe, which had been controlled by the F ederal
government for use as a military target practice site.
A total of 250 numbered silver and bronze sets were

produced. Wooden nickels (No. 15 in the series on
Haswaiian Endangered Wildlife) were also produced
in conjunction with the convention.

HSNA officers were elected for the coming year:
Gregory B. Hunt, president; Glen Yokoyama, first
vice-president; Alton Chow, second vice-president,
Gary Lau, secretary; Marion F. Kendrick, treasurer;
Charles Matsuda and W.K. Young, Honolulu Coin
Club representatives; and Derrick Ah Sing and Walt
Southward, Big Island Coin Club representatives.

On behalf of#he American Numismatic Association, I
presented L.R. "Rick" Howsley with the 1994
Outstanding District Delegate Award.

The HSNA's 32nd annual convention will be held on
Nov. 9-12, 1995, at the Queen Kapiolani Hotel. For
